winter in the city

Today was a bit of a write-off, not even sure what made it sucky – it just wasn’t the best of days. Lately I have been super groggy in the mornings, and it’s not unusual for me to get to work realising my top is inside out, or for me to walk into things while trying to do ten things at once. Today I managed to bash my elbow into the metal lock bit on my cupboard, so now have a puncture mark and nice bruise developing.

Then I only managed to have one cup of coffee, and had run out of tea by lunchtime (and then forgot to get from Spar when I went to get lunch). Work was on the boring side, I had aches and pains and by the end of the day I just felt too meh and tired to consider Muaythai. Which is crappy, and makes me feel super guilty for bunking class.

There were a few bright spots however…

* I wore my precious vintage Jackie O style jacket. It’s one of my favourite things ever, and is black, with three quarter sleeves, a satin colar and massive black buttons (with the moth holes covered by heart shaped pearly buttons).
* As always there were a lot of giggles at work. From midgets with high pitched voices to the endless hilarious diminishing ice tea stock, silly jokes and the usual driving each other mad, another fun day in the copy team.
* I indulged myself with an energy drink and cheese and pickle roll. Ok, two rolls. I am like a pregnant woman with my cravings for pickles, seriously love them and with mustard, cheese and tomato, it’s serious nom!
* My stress relief oil is somehow very comforting. It smells so nice, and even though I forgot to put on perfume, I still smelled good the whole day thanks to the oil.
* My cats are being so sweet lately. Jasper is still a little bugger, and he gives his Uncle Sonic a hard time, but they’re starting to sleep next to each other now, it’s so awesome to see them making friends!

Wish I could shake these Monday blues… there’s no chocolate or wine in the house though, and not quite sure I feel like any anyway. Think a hot bath with my stress relief oil, and then some Gossip Girl will do the trick.

At least the weather wasn’t too bad, considering it’s winter!
